Responsive WordPress SEO Theme

Stallion Responsive Theme was updated to version 8.2.1 January 2nd 2015.

Stallion Responsive is not just a WordPress Theme that’s SEO friendly, it’s an entire WordPress SEO package of built-in plugins and SEO features taking WordPress to the next level in Post Panda SEO and Google performance metrics with advanced SEO measures to help take full advantage of the new Google Hummingbird algorithm.

Hummingbird is the current Google search algorithm that understands human natural language patterns better than ever before: long tail keyword SERPs with a human touch and Stallion Responsive v8 includes multiple features to take advantage of Google: no other WordPress theme or SEO plugin has these Hummingbird features.

Tested to WordPress version 4.1 (January 1st 2015).

Hummingbird WordPress SEO

A couple of examples of natural language or conversational searches would be:

What is the Stallion Responsive Theme WordPress SEO Package?

How can Stallion Responsive SEO help my business?

Question like search phrases using natural language and Google has improved it’s algorithm (called Hummingbird) and the Stallion Responsive keyword phrases (one of many WP SEO package features) can be used to target these types of natural language SERPs. It’s a cool SEO feature which took months to code and takes just as long to implement on a large website (2015 Google SEO is not easy).

No other WordPress Theme offers this level of SEO features and options in one easy to use WordPress package.

This website is devoted to describing what has taken yours truly (David Law AKA: SEO Dave) over 7 years to develop to Stallion Responsive version 8.

The SEO package is that good I’m giving you full access to everything so you can see for yourself. Go kick the tires, if you don’t like what you see don’t buy a Stallion Responsive License, if you like it buy a Stallion ID for $200 USD using the “Buy Now” button on the left menu (on every page of this website) or via the Buy Now button below and enter the Transaction ID on the main Stallion Theme Options page: yes the zip files above are the full SEO product, all you need is a Transaction ID to turn off Demo mode.

Best Way to Install Stallion Responsive Many WordPress users are not familiar with WordPress Child themes, child themes add the ability to include extra features to a main parent theme allowing you to gain even more flexibility over WordPress. The Stallion Responsive SEO package relies heavily on a child theme (it’s free), it contains hundreds of images you can use as thumbnails, headers and banners within your WordPress powered website.

By installing and activating the free child theme you gain access to hundreds of free header images, banner images and thumbnails.

So Many WordPress Theme Options

Stallion is built on multiple options pages giving you full control over almost every aspect of a site. This does mean there’s a learning curve to get the most out of Stallion, but if you want the best you can’t expect it to be a simple install and everything works exactly how YOU want it.

That being said there are sensible SEO and performance defaults that with a few clicks of the mouse produces a site not unlike the one you are on now (this site runs under Stallion Responsive). On the main Stallion Options page there are instructions how to quickly setup a site for best SEO and performance: it’s literally two clicks of the mouse away.

Literally hundreds of theme options giving you full control over how your WordPress powered site looks and behaves including AdSense Responsive Beta Ad Unit code that has a better performance metric (loads faster) than what Google AdSense supplies by default!

Stallion Responsive Tutorials

This website is devoted to exploring the SEO capabilities of the Stallion Responsive WordPress SEO Package, below are some of the Stallion tutorials. Many of the package features are described within this websites posts, for example the extensive WordPress SEO Tutorial references Stallion Responsive a LOT.

Responsive WordPress Theme

Stallion Responsive has been created with both responsiveness to mobile devices and Google’s new performance metrics (the new post Panda SEO) in mind. Run this site through the Free Google Pagespeed Insights Tool. Now run your site or any other site running a WordPress SEO Theme through the tool and compare, below are screenshots from January 2014 for this websites home page.

Stallion Responsive Pagespeed Insights Mobile Results 92/100

Stallion Responsive Pagespeed Insights Desktop Results 98/100

The results will vary based on how good the connection is from Google Pagespeed Insights Tool and the webserver (this site runs on a cheap Godaddy Virtualserver with just 2GB of memory). Also Google is making changes to their Pagespeed metrics on a monthly basis (it’s a new Google metric), what is good today might be an issue 3 months from now.

Tend to use the same sort of layout, colours and settings (when you like something, tend to stick with it :-)) so doesn’t do full justice to Stallion’s options.

Have some test sites:

http://wordpress-test.xllx-inc.com/

http://wordpress-test2.xllx-inc.com/

http://wordpress-test-3.xllx-inc.com/

These will tend to look a mess because have lots of features turned on at the same time to test new colour schemes and that features interact correctly together (testing to breaking point).

On the verge of releasing Stallion Responsive 8.2 which will include a further ~50 override options, these are on a page by page basis override options.

This site for example has Gravatars active (see my Stallion horse avatar image), in 8.2 not only can Gravatars be turned on/off sitewide, they can be turned on/off one post at a time (this post could have Gravatars off, while the rest of the site shows them).

The overrides include the 12 layouts, the 40+ colour schemes (every post can use a different layout and/or colour scheme), each AdSense ad, the two different types of header areas, all the header images and banner images, whether a post should show the date it was published, comment dates, social media buttons and lots of other Stallion features.

When you create a post and think, this would work so much better if the AdSense ad floated to the left not the right or no ad at all or you don’t want the date on a post and it’s comments because though it’s old, the content is timeless and having old dates suggests out of date. With most WordPress themes you’d build a custom page template that lacked the date or the ad code… with Stallion Responsive 8.2 you Edit the post and tick a few boxes.

I’m testing Stallion Responsive 8.2 here and used the new override options to add a header image below the main header at http://stallion-theme.co.uk/wordpress-header-images/ see the 1000 px by 200px wide image near the top. It’s the only post on the site with an image there.

Yes, you can use the one Stallion Responsive license on all your WordPress sites.
